Ep5: Today at Elaine’s Literary Salon, don’t miss our interview with prolific author Robert McGee, PhD, and learn about his intriguing new book, “Justifiable Homicide”
When does the killing of political leaders become morally justifiable? Killing the Hitlers, Stalins and Pol Pots of the world is easy to justify. Murderous tyrants need to be killed. But what if our leaders are merely idiots, or perhaps corrupt, petty tyrants who aren’t in the same league as Hitler, Stalin or Pol Pot? How much damage can we allow them to do, how many of our rights can we allow them to take away, before killing them becomes justifiable homicide?
In Robert McGee’s latest novel, “Justifiable Homicide,” we are drawn into the world of a small group of patriots in Miami who believe that some of our leaders have already crossed the line and decided to do something about it. They identify potential targets for assassination and start going through the list. When our protagonist, an accounting professor with some firearms and martial arts training named Robert Paige, learns that one of his friends is on the list, he decides he must do whatever is necessary to stop them. The problem is: He doesn’t know who all the cell members are, or how to stop them.
Be sure to watch today’s interview with Elaine’s Literary Salon show host Jeffery James Higgins who asks Robert about his book, work as an author, and professional life as an attorney and CPA, having earned 23 academic degrees, including 13 doctorates from universities in the USA and Europe.
